[Milsurplus] TBY-? which model to assemble ?

[Hubert Miller]

I have enough parts to complete an "old model" TBY or the "newer model, last production".
The old one has no spring antenna base, fixed antenna mounting, panel light bulbs, and possibly - no radium on front panel.
I have bag, enough antenna sections for either or; batt; vib PS; headphone; key. Which should i assemble? I am leaning to the older
model, as i think it was more likely the model used at Tarawa, i mean, not after Tarawa. However, i also have a wood trunk for a TBY-7,
which is the newer model. I could get rid of the trunk separately. I do like the no - radium possibility.
